In this work, Carlos Castaneda resumes the account of his apprenticeship with the Yaqui shaman don Juan Matus. Through encounters and dialogues, the book addresses the perception of reality, the formation of consciousness, and the questioning of the established order, within a path of self-knowledge linked to shamanism.

For readers interested in spirituality, shamanism, and anthropology, and for those who follow the work of Carlos Castaneda.
Carlos Castaneda was a Peruvian-American writer, trained as an anthropologist. Starting in 1968, Castaneda published a series of books that describe alleged training in shamanism that he received under the tutelage of a Yaqui "Man of Knowledge" named Don Juan Matus. While Castaneda's work was accepted as factual by many when the books were first published, the character of Don Juan and the training he described is now generally considered to be fabricated and to have little relation to the actual cultural practices of the Yaqui. Castaneda's early writings featuring Don Juan were bestsellers with the general public, and are considered to be a significant influence on neoshamanism and the New Age movement more broadly.
